Sony and Take-Two CEOs, Hiroki Totoki and Strauss Zelnick, respectively, made statements regarding AI in gaming during Paley International Summit🚀 ✅Totoki believes AI will not replace human developers because creativity is uniquely human, though he encourages using AI workflows while protecting creators' rights. ✅Zelnick argues that AI itself won't replace developers, but developers who use AI will replace those who don't. ✅Zelnick notes that AI relies on backward-looking datasets and algorithms, whereas true creativity is forward-looking and produces unexpected hits (e.g., Home Alone). ✅Both PlayStation and Take-Two utilize AI to streamline internal workflows (though Take-Two confirmed AI is not being used to develop GTA 6). ✅The push for AI faces strong resistance from both players and developers due to concerns over job security, copyright issues, and creative quality. Source: @GameSpot Two of the worst figures in gaming, who are participating for the most anti-consumer policies and changes in the industry are trying to polish their image with pure PR talk that can never be trusted. They’re trying to deflect from ending physical media by pandering to developers and reassuring them they won’t replace them with AI, when Sony ruined so many studios’ and developers’ future this generation by forcing live service development, and now pushing to end physical media to capitalize on profits at the expense of player ownership, agency and options. Shame on both of them for ruining this generation and the future of gaming, no matter how many good games they make, and how fun are to us, this doesn’t change their morally bankrupt approach and their hypocrisy like Zelnick saying physical games “don’t make sense” and equating them to listening to music from vinyl, only to release 11 physical releases including more than 8 vinyl variants for GTA6 soundtracks. This tells you all you need to know about the trustworthiness of these people.
